Amalfi Coast Italy

Amalfi Coast, Italy

This is an absolutely unbelievable coastline of cliffs falling into the ocean with splattering's of houses and towns and tiny beaches.

2.

Assos Hill yop

Yosemite Valley, USA

The Yosemite National park would have to be one of the most spectacularly beautiful places on earth.

3.

Semuc Champey

Semuc Champey, Guatemala

The locals call this the eighth wonder of the world. The most beautiful steps of turquoise cascading rock pools, next to a raging river that flows underground through a sort of natural rock bridge. We also hiked for a half hour directly up the side of the hill to a lookout, for a birds eye view of this natural wonder.

4.

Grand Canyon

Grand Canyon, USA

The canyon view is breathtaking and cannot be described fully in words, nor captured adequately on film.

5.

Rocky Valley in Northern Mexico

Mexican Valley, Mexico

As we drove towards the north of Mexico for hours we passed though a barren rocky landscape that was like something from Mars.

6.

Great Australian Bight, SA, Australia

The flat nullabor plain just stops and drops off into the sea along this southern coast of Australia

7.
